-# GitHub Actions Workflows
-
-This directory contains reusable and repo-specific GitHub Actions workflows for the privilegedescalation organization.
-
-## Available Tools on Runners
-
-### Always Available
-- `curl` - HTTP client (use this instead of `gh` CLI for API calls)
-- `jq` - JSON processor
-- `bash` - Shell
-- `git` - Version control
-- `docker` / `podman` - Container runtime (depending on runner)
-
-### NOT Available (must install if needed)
-- `gh` CLI - GitHub CLI is **not** pre-installed on runners. Use `curl` with the GitHub API instead.
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### GitHub API Calls
-Instead of using `gh` CLI (which is not installed), use `curl` with the GitHub API:
-
-```yaml
-- name: Set PR label
-  env:
-    GH_TOKEN: ${{ github.token }}
-    REPO: ${{ github.repository }}
-    PR_NUMBER: ${{ github.event.pull_request.number }}
-  run: |
-    curl -sf \
-      -X POST \
-      -H "Authorization: Bearer ${GH_TOKEN}" \
-      -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" \
-      "https://api.github.com/repos/${REPO}/issues/${PR_NUMBER}/labels" \
-      -d '{"labels":["label-name"]}'
-```
-
-### Workflow Validation
-Run actionlint locally before pushing:
-
-```bash
-actionlint -color .github/workflows/*.yaml
-```
-
-### Reusable Workflows
-- `plugin-ci.yaml` - Standard CI for Headlamp plugins
-- `plugin-e2e.yaml` - E2E testing for Headlamp plugins
-- `dual-approval-check.yaml` - Checks for CTO and QA approval
-- `detect-pr-pipeline.yaml` - Detects Pipeline A vs Pipeline B based on changed files
-
-## Workflow Naming Convention
-
-- Use kebab-case: `my-workflow.yaml`
-- Be descriptive: `plugin-ci.yaml` not `ci.yaml`
-- For reusable workflows, keep the name clear about its purpose
-
-## Required Gates
-
-All PRs must pass:
-1. `actionlint` validation (workflow YAML syntax)
-2. Shell script validation (if scripts are used)
-3. Any repo-specific CI checks
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Getting Changed Files
-Use `tj-actions/changed-files`:
-
-```yaml
-- name: Get changed files
-  id: changed-files
-  uses: tj-actions/changed-files@v47
-  with:
-    files_separator: '\n'
-```
-
-### Setting Job Outputs
-```yaml
-- name: Set output
-  id: detect
-  run: |
-    echo "pipeline-type=pipeline-a" >> $GITHUB_OUTPUT
-```
-
-Access in downstream jobs: `${{ jobs.job-name.outputs.pipeline-type }}`

+# CLAUDE.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Repository Purpose
+
+This is the **Privileged Escalation org-level repository**. It contains company-wide skills (instruction bundles) consumed by AI agents that run inside Paperclip and develop Headlamp plugins. There is no application code, build system, or test suite — only Markdown skill definitions.
+
+## Structure
+
+- `skills/` — Company skill definitions, each in its own directory with a `SKILL.md` file
+  - `skills/safety/SKILL.md` — Non-negotiable safety rules (secret handling, destructive action restrictions, sealed-secrets workflow, escalation protocol)
+  - `skills/sdlc/SKILL.md` — Software development lifecycle rules (GitHub auth, issue approval gates, branch strategy, PR review policy, handoff protocol, CI/CD)
+  - `skills/coding-standards/SKILL.md` — Headlamp plugin development conventions (stack, commands, registration API, shared libraries)
+  - `skills/product-context/SKILL.md` — Product context (plugin portfolio, target users, competitive landscape, evaluation framework, feature spec template)
+
+## Skill File Format
+
+Each skill is a Markdown file with YAML frontmatter containing `name` and `description` fields:
+
+```markdown
+---
+name: skill-name
+description: >
+  One-line description of what the skill covers.
+---
+
+# Skill Title
+
+Content...
+```
+
+## Skill Loading Order
+
+Skills are loaded by Paperclip in this order: `safety` → `sdlc` → `coding-standards` → `product-context`. Later skills can assume earlier ones are already loaded and should not duplicate their content.

-## Why Headlamp?
-
-Headlamp is a CNCF-listed Kubernetes dashboard built for extensibility. Our plugins slot in natively — no separate UIs, no context switching. If you run Headlamp, you can add any of our plugins with a single command.
-
-## Get Started
-
-Every plugin is installable via the Headlamp plugin system. See individual repos for install instructions.
-
-## Contributing
-
-We welcome contributions, bug reports, and feature requests. Open an issue on any repo or start a discussion. All projects are licensed under Apache 2.0.
-
-## Sponsor
-
-If these plugins save your team time, consider [sponsoring our work](https://github.com/sponsors/privilegedescalation). Sponsorship funds go directly toward new plugin development and maintenance.

+  Coding standards for Privileged Escalation. Covers Headlamp plugin
+  development workflow, registration API, shared libraries, versioning,
+  dependency management, container registry, and distribution policy.
+---
+
+# Coding Standards
+
+## Headlamp Plugins
+
+All plugins extend [Headlamp](https://headlamp.dev/docs/latest/development/plugins/getting-started), a Kubernetes dashboard with a plugin system.
+
+- **Language:** TypeScript + React 18, MUI v5
+- **Scaffolding:** `npx --yes @kinvolk/headlamp-plugin create <plugin-name>`
+- **Entry point:** `src/index.tsx`
+- **Linting:** ESLint via `@headlamp-k8s/eslint-config` + Prettier
+- **Testing:** Vitest + React Testing Library
+
+### Plugin Commands
+
+Run from the plugin directory:
+
+| Command | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `npm run start` | Dev mode with hot reload |
+| `npm run build` | Production build (`dist/main.js`) |
+| `npm run format` | Prettier format |
+| `npm run lint` | ESLint check |
+| `npm run lint-fix` | ESLint auto-fix |
+| `npm run tsc` | Typecheck |
+| `npm run test` | Vitest tests |
+
+### Registration API
+
+Import from `@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib`:
+
+- `registerAppBarAction()` — add components to the nav bar
+- `registerRoute()` — create new pages
+- `registerSidebarEntry()` — add sidebar items
+- `registerDetailsViewSection()` — extend resource detail views
+- `registerPluginSettings()` — add plugin configuration UI
+
+### K8s API Access
+
+```typescript
+import { K8s } from '@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib';
+const [pods, error] = K8s.ResourceClasses.Pod.useList();
+```
+
+### Shared Libraries
+
+These are provided by Headlamp at runtime — **do not bundle them**:
+React, React Router, Redux, MUI, Lodash, Monaco Editor, Notistack, Iconify.
+
+## Versioning & Distribution
+
+- **All releases use SemVer.** ArtifactHub requires SemVer for Headlamp plugin packages — no CalVer, no custom schemes.
+- **Plugin distribution is ArtifactHub only.** Plugins are installed through Headlamp's native plugin installer sourced from ArtifactHub. No Helm charts, install scripts, or custom install mechanisms.
+- **Container images go to `ghcr.io` only.** Never Docker Hub, never mirror public images, never reference any other registry.
+
+## Dependency Management
+
+- **Dependency updates are owned by Mend Renovate.** Never enable Dependabot, never create `.github/dependabot.yml`, never reference Dependabot in workflows or docs.
+- **No package mirrors.** Never set up, configure, or reference package mirrors or proxies (npm, pip, Maven, container, etc.). Always use upstream registries directly.
+- **Security scanning uses local tools.** Run `npm audit` or `pnpm audit` for vulnerability scanning. Do not use the GitHub vulnerability alerts API.

+
+## Target users
+
+**Primary: The Platform Engineer**
+
+* Manages 1-50 Kubernetes clusters, mid-size company (100-2000 employees)
+* Pain point: "I have 15 tools open to monitor my clusters. I want one dashboard that shows me everything."
+* Very high tech comfort. Knows Kubernetes deeply. Will read your source code.
+* Will adopt a plugin in 5 minutes if it solves a real problem. Will drop it in 5 seconds if it's buggy or doesn't add value over `kubectl`.
+
+**Secondary: The DevOps Lead / SRE Manager**
+
+* Manages a platform team, responsible for cluster health and reliability.
+* Wants plugins that visualize what matters and surface problems proactively — NOT another monitoring tool.
+
+**Anti-persona: The Application Developer**
+
+App developers care about their deployments, not the cluster. Features like "show me my pod logs" are already in Headlamp core. Don't build for them.
+
+## Scope
+
+**In scope**
+
+* Headlamp plugins that visualize and manage specific Kubernetes ecosystem tools
+* Plugins that surface operational insights not available in Headlamp core
+* Plugins for CNCF projects and widely-adopted K8s ecosystem tools
+* ArtifactHub packaging and distribution
+
+**Explicitly out of scope**
+
+* Plugins that duplicate Headlamp core functionality
+* Non-Kubernetes tools
+* Hosted/SaaS versions of plugins
+* Helm-based or sidecar-based plugin installation
+* Custom Headlamp forks
+* Monitoring/alerting backends (we visualize, we don't collect metrics)
+* Multi-cluster management
+* CLI tools
+
+## Competitive landscape
+
+| Competitor                       | Where PRI differs                                                                   |
+| -------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Headlamp core**                | We extend it, not compete. If a feature belongs in core, contribute upstream.       |
+| **Lens**                         | Heavy, desktop-only, commercial. We make web-based, open source Headlamp better.    |
+| **k9s**                          | Different modality (TUI vs web). Not competitive.                                   |
+| **Komodor / Kubecost / Robusta** | Standalone products. Our plugins bring their insights INTO Headlamp. Complementary. |
+
+PRI's moat: leading third-party Headlamp plugin developer. Plugins are free, open source, on ArtifactHub.
+
+## Plugin evaluation framework
+
+1. **Is there a widely-adopted K8s ecosystem tool that lacks Headlamp visibility?**
+   * Fewer than 1,000 GitHub stars or in alpha → too early. Close with "revisit when more mature."
+   * Already has a Headlamp plugin → duplicate. Close.
+2. **Does the plugin add value over `kubectl` + the tool's own CLI/UI?**
+   * "It shows the same thing but in Headlamp" → weak value prop. Good plugins correlate data, surface problems proactively, simplify complex operations.
+3. **Can Gandalf build and maintain it?**
+   * One engineer can maintain ~6-8 plugins at current complexity. We're at 7 now. New plugins mean either dropping an existing one or hiring.
+4. **Is it installable via ArtifactHub without extras?**
+   * Plugin requires CRDs/RBAC/cluster resources installed separately → degraded experience.
+   * Unacceptable: plugin requires its own operator or sidecar.
+
+**Priority tiers**
+
+* **P0**: Bugs in existing plugins that break functionality or produce incorrect data
+* **P1**: Enhancements to existing plugins users are requesting
+* **P2**: New plugins for high-value K8s tools with clear user demand
+* **P3**: Speculative plugins, cross-plugin features, UX experiments
+
+## Feature spec template
+
+```markdown
+## Problem
+What operational visibility or capability is missing? Who needs it? What do they do today instead?
+
+## Proposed Solution
+What should the plugin show or enable that isn't available today?
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Plugin displays...
+- [ ] User can...
+- [ ] Data is accurate when compared to `kubectl` / native CLI output
+- [ ] Works with [tool name] version X.Y+
+- [ ] Installable via ArtifactHub without additional cluster-level setup
+- [ ] Has unit tests covering core display logic
+
+## Out of Scope for This Issue
+## Dependencies
+What must exist in the cluster for this plugin to work? (CRDs, operators, RBAC)
+
+## Priority
+P0/P1/P2/P3 with one-sentence justification.

+  Non-negotiable safety rules for all agents at Privileged Escalation. Covers
+  secret handling, destructive command restrictions, sealed-secrets workflow,
+  anti-impersonation rules, role-boundary rules for GitHub actions, and
+  escalation protocol when uncertain.
+---
+
+# Safety Considerations
+
+The following rules apply to all agents at Privileged Escalation without exception.
+
+## Non-Negotiable Rules
+
+* **Never exfiltrate secrets or private data.** This includes API keys, tokens, PEM files, database credentials, kubeconfig contents, and any value sourced from a secret reference in your adapter config. Do not log, comment, or return these values in any output.
+
+* **Seek Board Approval for Destructive Actions.** Destructive means: deleting resources, dropping tables, wiping namespaces, force-pushing branches, resetting git history, removing secrets, or any operation that cannot be undone without restoring from backup.
+
+* **No plaintext secrets in any repository.** Kubernetes secrets go through Bitnami Sealed Secrets (`kubeseal`). Application credentials go in environment variables injected at runtime — never hardcoded.
+
+* **Do not use `kubectl create` in production.**
+The `privilegedescalation` namespace is Flux-managed. Secret changes go through the SealedSecrets workflow, committed to `privilegedescalation/infra`.
+
+* **Never impersonate another agent or human.** Agents must never sign, attribute, or present GitHub comments, PR reviews, or any external communications as another agent. Every comment must accurately identify the authoring agent. Signing as another agent — even when forwarding their work — is a process violation.
+
+* **Post GitHub comments only within your defined SDLC role.** An agent must not post a review type that belongs to another role, even if that role's agent has not yet completed its review:
+  - **Engineer bot** posts: implementation comments, CI results
+  - **QA bot** posts: QA reviews
+  - **UAT bot** posts: UAT reviews
+  - **CTO bot** posts: CTO reviews and approvals
+  - **CEO bot** posts: merge confirmations only
+
+* **Never change another agent's model configuration.** No agent may suggest, request, or execute a change to any other agent's model settings — including for quota exhaustion, cost optimization, or any other reason. Quota issues must be escalated to the board. This is a non-negotiable board directive.
+
+## If you are unsure
+
+If you are unsure whether an action is safe, stop. Post a comment on the Paperclip issue explaining what you are about to do and why you are uncertain, set the issue to `blocked`, and escalate to your manager. Do not guess.

+  Software development lifecycle rules for Privileged Escalation. Covers GitHub
+  issue approval gates, authentication, branch strategy, PR review policy,
+  pipeline stages, CI/CD, and security review.
+---
+
+# Software Development Lifecycle
+
+## GitHub Authentication
+
+Access to GitHub is done via token in your env **Never** run `gh auth login` directly — it hangs headless agents.
+
+## GitHub Issues — Board Approval Required
+
+**If a task originated from GitHub (`originKind: "github"` in the issue data), do not begin any work.** Immediately create a `request_board_approval`:
+
+```json
+POST /api/companies/{companyId}/approvals
+{
+  "type": "request_board_approval",
+  "requestedByAgentId": "{your-agent-id}",
+  "issueIds": ["{issue-id}"],
+  "payload": {
+    "title": "Board approval required: GitHub issue",
+    "summary": "Summarize what the GitHub issue requests.",
+    "recommendedAction": "Approve to begin work.",
+    "risks": ["Work begins without board review if approved."]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Set the issue to `blocked` until `PAPERCLIP_APPROVAL_STATUS` confirms approval. Only proceed once approved.
+
+## Branch Strategy
+
+All plugin repositories use three long-lived branches representing a promotion chain:
+
+| Branch | Environment | Owner | Who merges to it |
+|--------|-------------|-------|-----------------|
+| `dev` | Development | Engineer | Engineer self-merges after CI passes |
+| `uat` | User Acceptance Testing | QA (Regression Regina) | QA merges after code review |
+| `main` | Production | UAT (Pixel Patty) | UAT merges after browser validation |
+
+**Engineers target `dev` via feature branches** — never push directly to any long-lived branch.
+
+Feature branches follow the convention: `<agent-name>/<short-description>` (e.g., `gandalf/add-sealed-secrets-list`).
+
+## Pull Requests
+
+All changes must happen via pull request. Always include `cc @cpfarhood` at the bottom of the PR body for visibility — not as a reviewer.
+
+```bash
+gh pr create --title "..." --body "... cc @cpfarhood"
+```
+
+## PR Review & Merge Policy
+
+**Do not approve a PR with failing tests, type errors, or no coverage for new code.**
+
+### Promotion chain
+
+Each promotion is a PR reviewed and merged by its gate owner:
+
+1. **feature → dev** — Engineer self-merges after CI passes. No review required. Dev is for validation, not quality gates.
+2. **dev → uat** — QA (Regression Regina) reviews code quality: test coverage, regressions, edge cases. QA merges to `uat` after approval.
+3. **uat → main** — UAT (Pixel Patty) validates the deployed application via Playwright browser testing. UAT merges to `main` after validation passes. For detailed UAT testing procedures, see the `uat` company skill.
+
+**Each gate owner has merge authority.** No separate merge step by another role. No agent merges their own code to `uat` or `main` — only the gate owner merges promotions they review.
+
+## Pipeline
+
+### Pipeline A: Plugin/Feature Changes
+
+```text
+Engineer → PR to dev → self-merge → deploys to dev
+→ Engineer validates on dev
+→ PR from dev → uat → QA reviews → QA merges
+→ Deploys to UAT environment
+→ PR from uat → main → UAT validates → UAT merges
+→ Production
+```
+
+Applies to changes in `headlamp-*-plugin/` repos (plugin code, features, bug fixes).
+
+**UAT_PLAYBOOK.md maintenance:** When modifying a plugin in any way that changes how it must be tested — including new features, changed behavior, updated UI flows, or different data sources — the engineer must update the `UAT_PLAYBOOK.md` file in the plugin repository root with the current testing steps before requesting UAT. This ensures the playbook stays current as plugins evolve and UAT agents have accurate test guidance.
+
+### Pipeline B: Infrastructure Changes (No UI Impact)
+
+```text
+Engineer → PR to main → CI passes → QA reviews → QA merges
+→ Production
+```
+
+Applies to changes in `.github/workflows/`, `infra/`, `org/` repos, and template repos. No UAT stage needed — infrastructure changes have no UI to validate.
+
+**Detection:** If `git diff` shows changes only in `.github/`, `infra/`, `org/`, or deployment files → Pipeline B. If any `headlamp-*-plugin/` code changed → Pipeline A.
+
+**Failure routing:** Any stage failure returns directly to the engineer via PR comments.
+
+## Issue Reviewers and Approvers
+
+Every Paperclip issue has **Reviewers** and **Approvers** fields visible in the UI sidebar. These are populated by setting `executionPolicy` when creating the issue. Without an execution policy, those fields show "None" and handoffs never trigger.
+
+**All stage and participant `id` fields must be random UUIDs.** Generate them at issue-creation time (e.g. via `uuidgen` or your language's UUID library). Do not use descriptive strings — the API rejects non-UUID values.
+
+### Pipeline A — set reviewers on issue creation
+
+For plugin/feature work (Pipeline A), set a two-stage execution policy so QA and UAT appear as reviewers:
+
+```bash
+QA_STAGE_ID=$(uuidgen)
+QA_PART_ID=$(uuidgen)
+UAT_STAGE_ID=$(uuidgen)
+UAT_PART_ID=$(uuidgen)
+```
+
+```json
+"executionPolicy": {
+  "mode": "normal",
+  "commentRequired": true,
+  "stages": [
+    {
+      "id": "<QA_STAGE_ID>",
+      "type": "review",
+      "approvalsNeeded": 1,
+      "participants": [
+        { "id": "<QA_PART_ID>", "type": "agent", "agentId": "fd5dbec8-ddbb-4b57-9703-624e0ed90053" }
+      ]
+    },
+    {
+      "id": "<UAT_STAGE_ID>",
+      "type": "review",
+      "approvalsNeeded": 1,
+      "participants": [
+        { "id": "<UAT_PART_ID>", "type": "agent", "agentId": "01ec02f7-70c2-4fa1-ac3f-2545f1237ac3" }
+      ]
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+- Stage 1 reviewer: Regression Regina (`fd5dbec8-ddbb-4b57-9703-624e0ed90053`)
+- Stage 2 reviewer: Pixel Patty (`01ec02f7-70c2-4fa1-ac3f-2545f1237ac3`)
+
+### Pipeline B — single reviewer
+
+For infrastructure changes (Pipeline B), use one QA review stage:
+
+```json
+"executionPolicy": {
+  "mode": "normal",
+  "commentRequired": true,
+  "stages": [
+    {
+      "id": "<QA_STAGE_ID>",
+      "type": "review",
+      "approvalsNeeded": 1,
+      "participants": [
+        { "id": "<QA_PART_ID>", "type": "agent", "agentId": "fd5dbec8-ddbb-4b57-9703-624e0ed90053" }
+      ]
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Triggering the handoff
+
+When an engineer completes work and merges to `dev`, set the Paperclip issue status to `in_review`. This activates the execution policy and wakes the first reviewer. Each reviewer approves or requests changes through the normal Paperclip issue update flow — see the Paperclip skill's `references/api-reference.md` for details.
+
+## CI/CD
+
+- CI runs on self-hosted ARC runners: `runs-on: runners-privilegedescalation`
+- CI triggers on PRs to `dev`, `uat`, and `main` branches
+- Engineers may modify `.github/workflows/` files directly via PR
+- Runners scale to zero when idle and start automatically when a workflow triggers
+
+## Security Review
+
+Security review is handled as part of the QA review stage. Regression Regina evaluates security concerns during her code quality review. There is no separate dedicated security review agent.

+  Functional UAT procedures for Privileged Escalation Headlamp plugins. General
+  behavior, acceptance criteria, artifact requirements, and reference to
+  plugin-specific test steps in UAT_PLAYBOOK.md.
+---
+
+# UAT Procedures
+
+## Purpose
+
+This skill defines **functional User Acceptance Testing** for all Privileged Escalation Headlamp plugins. UAT validates that plugins work correctly in the deployed environment — by exercising plugin features in a running Headlamp instance, not by reviewing code or CI results.
+
+## UAT Environment
+
+The UAT Headlamp instance runs in the `headlamp-uat` Kubernetes namespace. Navigate to the Headlamp UAT URL using your Playwright browser. The plugin under test must be deployed to UAT before testing begins.
+
+## General Process
+
+For every `uat→main` promotion:
+
+1. Open the Headlamp UAT instance in the browser
+2. Confirm the plugin appears in the sidebar or app bar
+3. Read the plugin's `UAT_PLAYBOOK.md` for the specific test steps to run
+4. Execute the test steps from the playbook, capturing screenshots at each verification
+5. Check the browser console for errors throughout
+6. Post a structured test report (see Artifacts section)
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+A plugin passes UAT when:
+
+- **Plugin loads** — sidebar entry or app bar action is visible and accessible
+- **Features work** — all core features in the playbook execute without errors
+- **No console errors** — browser console shows no errors during normal operation
+- **Data matches cluster state** — plugin data is consistent with `kubectl` queries against the cluster
+
+A plugin fails UAT when:
+
+- Plugin does not load or renders only an error state
+- Any core feature is inaccessible or produces errors
+- Console errors are present and not explainable as unrelated noise
+- Displayed data contradicts known cluster state
+
+## Artifact Requirements
+
+For each plugin tested, the UAT report must include:
+
+1. **Screenshots** of the plugin running in Headlamp — sidebar entry visible, main view loaded, at least one detail view
+2. **Test checklist** — each step from `UAT_PLAYBOOK.md` marked pass/fail
+3. **Console errors** — any browser console errors observed (attach screenshot if present)
+4. **Environment info** — Headlamp version, plugin version, browser used, namespace context
+
+## Reading UAT_PLAYBOOK.md
+
+Each plugin repository contains a `UAT_PLAYBOOK.md` in its root directory. That file contains the canonical test steps for that specific plugin. Before running UAT, read the relevant playbook to know:
+
+- Which features to exercise
+- What the expected results are
+- What screenshots to capture at each step
+
+If `UAT_PLAYBOOK.md` does not exist for a plugin, treat that as a gap — report it in the UAT findings and flag it as a documentation issue.
+
+## Decision Criteria
+
+- **Approve** the `uat→main` promotion when all applicable test steps from the playbook pass and no console errors are present
+- **Request changes** when any test step fails — include specific failing steps, observed results vs. expected results, and failure screenshots
+- **Block** if the plugin fails to load entirely — escalate to CTO as a deployment issue requiring immediate resolution
